As the professional association for public health pest control, we know that managing pests in a way that respects and supports biodiversity is essential.  

BPCA Chief Executive, Rosina Robson, has also joined the UKBBF Steering Committee, helping shape strategy and promote the Forum’s work.  

She said:  

Pest management and biodiversity are not at odds - in fact, they go hand in hand. We’re looking forward to contributing to national conversations and bringing back the best insights to support our members’ work.

By becoming a member of the UKBBF, we’ll be better placed to keep up with the latest UK and international policy developments, which will directly inform the sustainability resources and guidance we provide to our members. 

The group is well-networked with the government, NGOs, and influential businesses, opening up new opportunities for BPCA to advocate for its members while highlighting the role pest management plays in protecting public health and the environment. 

BPCA PARTNERSHIPS 

BPCA collaborates with a range of partners to represent the pest management industry and foster strong networks for its members.
